@writer200499: "I am not able to shut down my laptop (using XP home) 
unless I pull the ac cord and the battery. The computer 
goes through the shut down okay and then starts to 
reboot. It goes through the IBM Thinkpad logo  and then 
when the XP screen comes up it goes very dim. That is 
when I have to pull all the power.
Henp!
Thanks"

    @rkn: "Thanks Will, I did go the first link some time ago, but none of the
suggestions worked. I did have Roxio Easy CD installed and applied the patch
from their website to no avail.
Checked out the second link you gave me but am still searching for a clue. I
have an old ADSL modem Speedstream 4060 that I believe might be the culprit,
but have yet to find the evidence...

You have something that is crashing on being asked to close - and the
system`s `automatically restart` is cutting in.  Turn this off: in
Control Panel - System - Advanced, click Settings in the Startup and
Recovery section.  There uncheck `automatically restart`.  You can also
usefully change the `write debugging information` to (none).   You may
now get a Blue screen failure instead, but at least will get some
guidance as to what is happening
